Bonnie + Steve — LaBelle Winery Wedding

Bonnie & Steve’s wedding at the LaBelle Winery in New Hampshire, was SO fun! It was sunny all morning and began threatening rain before the ceremony – but wouldn’t you know it, the rain held off until we finished family portraits outside! And then it POURED! That certainly didn’t stop the party going on inside… these guys enjoyed their reception to the fullest!! Check out some of my favorites from their day…

First Look in a open field in the noonday sun? no problem!

Steve cracks me up! He’s officially my first groom with a Go Pro and a selfie stick! How cute are they together?!

Gotta love a fun bridal party!

Time for the ceremony, and everyone got emotional! I love that even with a First Look that moment coming down the aisle still made Bonnie cry! There’s just nothing quite like it.

Peace out, little man!

So happy!

Reception Time! How much do you LOVE these ladies?!?!

More happy tears!

Tearing up the dance floor!

SUCH a great wedding!! Thank you Bonnie & Steve for having us there to document and enjoy the awesomeness! xoxo

And big thanks to my second shooter for the day, Peter Morse!

Bonnie + Steve — Engagement Portrait Session

I had so much fun walking around Somerville with Bonnie & Steve during their engagement session! It was great to just get to know them both a little better, and enjoy their neighborhood. Engagement sessions are such a fun peek into my clients’ everyday lives – and I think that’s just as fun as being with them on the BIG days!

Home sweet home!

Taylor & Pete – Ferry Building, San Francisco, CA Engagement – xo, CoCo

M2314_D0001-Edit

Taylor, Pete, and I had the chance to get together for my favorite kind of meeting: one with beer! Which also happened to take place on a sunny 60-degree afternoon in San Francisco, in DECEMBER! I was in town for Christmas, they cut out of work early (shhhhh don’t tell…) and we had a great time getting to know each other, going over wedding day plans, washing down some delicious food with an Anchor Steam, and we even took a few pictures along the way!

M2314_D0005-Edit
M2314_D0011-Edit

Ain’t they cute?!

M2314_D0016-Edit

Hahaha!

M2314_D0018-Edit

Now THAT’s a blue sky.

M2314_D0022-Edit

Then we decided to stroll over to Pier 14…

M2314_D0023-Edit

…where there was a GREAT view of the city!

M2314_D0027-Edit

And some beautiful light!

Ashley + Andrew — The Barn at Gibbet Hill Wedding Details – xo, CoCo

B2115_D0564-Edit

If that picture doesn’t sum these two up then I don’t know what will… Ashley and Andrew had an absolute BLAST on their perfectly snowy wedding day in late February, feast your eyes on all their beautifully thought out DIY details!

Ashley’s dress and Kate Spade earrings suited her perfectly: feminine and soft, with just the right amount of sparkle.

B2115_D0009

She and her bridesmaids wore coordinating flannel pj’s as they got ready, they were so cute!

B2115_D0061-Edit

B2115_D0012

B2115_D0174-Edit

Gotta keep an eye on the weather!

B2115_D0103
B2115_D0188

B2115_D0193

B2115_D0268-Edit

We all braved the at least 4 feet of snow to shoot some portraits at Fitch’s footbridge, on the way from the church to Gibbet Hill.

B2115_D0341-Edit

And man was it worth it!

B2115_D0372-Edit

B2115_D0378

Then the snow really started to fall…

B2115_D0429-Edit

B2115_D0427

B2115_D0439-Edit

B2115_D0530

I mean…

B2115_D0579-Edit

B2115_D0576

This is how excited we are about shooting in the snow!

B2115_D0534

The reception details were equally soft, feminine, rustic, romantic and fun.

MMmmmmmm donuts…

Ashley + Andrew — The Barn at Gibbet Hill Wedding – xo, CoCo

CFB_7320-Edit

GET READY FOLKS. We started 2015 out with a bang and one of the most beautiful winter weddings EVER! Ashley and Andrew, troopers and classic New Englanders that they are, wanted to get married IN the snow, and boy did they get their wish! Not only did we get snow, we got that perfect movie snow that blanketed the ground, the bride’s eyelashes, and made everything feel so romantic and festive. Not to mention the fact that these two are SO MUCH FUN, between Ashley’s laugh and Andrew’s dance moves, there was just no way this day would be anything short of perfect.

I started out with the smiling bride as she got ready with her girls, all in matching flannel pj’s mind you.

B2115_D0026-Edit

B2115_D0059-Edit

Krista was my second shooter for the day (Dream Team!) She started out with Andrew and his boys, and these icicles, I can’t even look at them! Brrrrrrrrrr…

B2115_D0119

B2115_D0089-Edit

B2115_D0108-Edit

B2115_D0100-Edit

Meanwhile everything was starting to come together with the girls! Everyone tied up their dresses in a different way.

B2115_D0131-Edit

Ashley’s dress was lovely! I loved all the little details and sparkles, so feminine.

B2115_D0137

I mean… what a stunner.

B2115_D0170-Edit

Hahaha!

B2115_D0179-Edit

Time to get married! Krista waited at the front of the aisle for this, which I just LOVE.

B2115_D0238-Edit

B2115_D0280-Edit

Woohoo!

B2115_D0299-Edit

B2115_D0329-Edit

Then, these two absolute champions, actually strapped on their brand new matching LL Bean boots and forged out into 4 feet (at least!) of snow with us to take some gorgeous pictures near Fitch’s Footbridge. Krista caught this one.

B2115_D0366-Edit

EEEeeeeeee!!

B2115_D0356-Edit

B2115_D0373-Edit

Their bridal party was also impressed, Krista got this…LOVE.

B2115_D0367-Edit

I mean, who WOULDN’T need a beer after that?!
B2115_D0385-Edit

Meanwhile back at Gibbet Hill… it REALY started to snow!

B2115_D0430

So we took some time inside for their super fun bridal party, this one from Krista.
B2115_D0482-Edit
B2115_D0479-Edit

B2115_D0533-Edit

And of course we just HAD to take advantage of all that snow!

B2115_D0535-Edit

Could it be more pretty?! Not possible.

B2115_D0558-Edit
B2115_D0553-Edit

B2115_D0540-Edit

At twilight Krista grabbed this from outside the barn, SUCH a beautiful night!

B2115_D0668-Edit

The reception got started with their first dance.

B2115_D0693-Edit

And some AWESOME toasts.

B2115_D0794-Edit

B2115_D0838-Edit

Then it was dancing time!

B2115_D1111-Edit

Then Andrew, oh Andrew, showed us all what he was made of, with an amazing lip-synching to “It’s Raining Men.” I nearly died of laughter!!!

B2115_D1161-Edit
B2115_D1172-Edit

Just amazing.

B2115_D1162-Edit

B2115_D1031-Edit

B2115_D0957-Edit

That’s all she wrote folks! Can you see why I love these two so much?! Ashley and Andrew, THANK YOU for being so wonderful, trusting us with your memories and having the time of your lives on your wedding day. Check out more on Facebook y’all and stay tuned for their adorable diy details!

Lephan + Scotty — Hyatt Regency Boston Wedding – xo, CoCo

_CFB2522-Edit

Ohhhhh these two. You may remember these adorable faces from their Providence, RI engagement session where I fell in LOVE with them. Lephan and Scotty are two of the most joyful people I’ve met, I’m so happy I was there to capture that joy on their wedding day, and let me tell you there was a LOT of it. This day was a smashing end to our season, I think you’ll be able to see for yourselves why we love these two so much.

I started out with Lephan as she got ready, and had a really fun time getting into her dress. Just LOVE this :)

L2214_D0056-Edit

L2214_D0081-Edit

My very good friend Deborah Zoe started out with Scotty, once he actually found his bowtie that is…. hehe.

L2214_D0140-Edit

We were making our way down to the First Look and I just had to get Lephan in this light! Man oh man!

L2214_D0106-Edit

Deb caught this of Scotty’s First Look.

L2214_D0161-Edit

My view, they were so excited!

L2214_D0183-Edit

We then walked down the street to grab some portraits near the Paramount Theatre.

L2214_D0206-Edit

I mean, that color!

L2214_D0224-Edit

Then made our way through the city.

L2214_D0229-Edit

Lephan, I know this wall was freezing, but it was worth it right?!

L2214_D0237-Edit

_CFB2170-Edit

The whole bridal party met up with us under the Chinatown gate.

L2214_D0248-Edit

Deb caught this, work it y’all!

LOVE this portrait from Deb.

L2214_D0308-Edit

L2214_D0313-Edit

Thennnn Lephan put on her neon coat, and we needed documentation of it, obviously.

L2214_D0331-Edit

Time to hide away for the ceremony, in a coat closet… hehe.

L2214_D0360-Edit

L2214_D0382-Edit

L2214_D0395-Edit

Becky + Mike — Harvard Square Engagement – xo, CoCo

L0914_D0001-Edit

Becky, Mike and I got a miraculously warm November day to wander around Harvard Square together. They had never spent much time there, but the light was beautiful and we had a great time discovering some characteristic little nooks and crannies for them to cuddle in. :) These two were so comfortable with each other, I felt like I barely had to work at all! In fact, it always amazes me, no matter how beautiful you think a person is on their own, something happens to them when they are with the one they love, a light inside makes them glow all over. The same is true for these two, not only are they both beautiful and interesting people in their own right, there is something about their energy together that is absolutely infectious, and infinitely better than their individual parts alone. You know, sometimes things just fall into place.

We started out in Harvard Yard.

L0914_D0010-Edit

L0914_D0015-Edit

L0914_D0025-Edit

L0914_D0030-Edit

We headed over to the river and they just HAD to stop and cuddle. ;)

L0914_D0048-Edit

L0914_D0051-Edit

I mean are these guys adorable or what?

L0914_D0065-Edit

L0914_D0061-Edit

We made our way through the dorms.

L0914_D0082-Edit

And finally out onto the Weeks Footbridge, with this BEAUTIFUL light, I was eating it up!

L0914_D0087-Edit

L0914_D0093-Edit

Nothing can beat that color!

L0914_D0092-Edit

L0914_D0096-Edit

Becky!!!!! You are just gorgeous.

L0914_D0130-Edit

L0914_D0140-Edit

L0914_D0136-Edit

Man, what a night! Becky and Mike, thank you for your beauty, inside and out! It was so much fun spending time with and photographing you, not to mention having a beer or two after! ;) Check out more on Facebook y’all!

Katie + Brian — Black Rock Country Club Wedding – xo, CoCo

Get ready for a whole lot of pretty, folks. Katie & Brian were married on one of the last days of Fall, when the light was buttery and warm and you could still get away without wearing a coat. It was one of those wonderfully beautiful days where the Bride and Groom’s tireless preparations paid off, everything went to plan, and they just got to have fun and enjoy their day. I mean, it really doesn’t get any better than that. Let’s start with Katie as she got ready with her girls.

I love Katie’s soft and feminine details, they just fit her perfectly!
L0814_D0011

L0814_D0019

L0814_D0040-Edit

My lovely assistant Pam caught this, how cute are these girls?!

L0814_D0033-Edit

GIRL! You are so beautiful!

L0814_D0065-Edit

L0814_D0076-Edit

Katie gave her adorable parents some very thoughtful embroidered handkerchiefs, their reaction was so sweet!

L0814_D0089-Edit

Then it was time to head to the church!

L0814_D0095-Edit

Meanwhile, my lovely second shooter Cris Llerena, started with Brian and his boys. This little guy, can you even stand it?!

L0814_D0114-Edit

L0814_D0122

L0814_D0128-Edit

I tagged along with the girls on the way to the ceremony.

L0814_D0133-Edit

L0814_D0135-Edit

L0814_D0323

“It’s our party and we’ll cry if we want to!” I love it!

L0814_D0147

Some members of the wedding party really took that to heart… hehe.

L0814_D0171-Edit

L0814_D0196-Edit

L0814_D0234-Edit

L0814_D0250-Edit

L0814_D0268-Edit

I just love that light!!

L0814_D0287-Edit

L0814_D0303-Edit

Then it was off to Black Rock to capture the last bit of light!

L0814_D0318

And what gorgeous light it was!

L0814_D0380-Edit

L0814_D0361-Edit

L0814_D0386-Edit

L0814_D0388

_CFB7768-Edit

This is what happy looks likes folks…

L0814_D0407-Edit

We even had enough light to capture some beautiful, natural formal photos outside, love this group!

L0814_D0488-Edit

Little Meredith and Colin were keeping everyone entertained for me, thanks guys! :)

L0814_D0427-Edit

L0814_D0480

And a killer sunset to boot!

L0814_D0511-Edit

L0814_D0513

An heirloom cake topper, and room filled with tons of candles made everything feel so romantic. And I haven’t seen a Groom’s cake in so long, this one Katie arranged was awesome!

L0814_D0543

L0814_D0585-Edit

I mean… Cris thank you for grabbing this, this isn’t the last you’ll see of these cuties.

L0814_D0609-Edit

L0814_D0630-Edit

When Grandma’s attack! :)

L0814_D0706-Edit

Then it was party time y’all!
